DBasia.news – Zinedine Zidane’s legacy when he coached Real Madrid will not be forgotten by fans. In addition to presenting a La Liga title, Zizou also entered into the history of European football through the achievement of three consecutive Champions League titles.

“The relationship between me and Zidane did go well, but I can’t say if we are good friends. The relationship between us is very normal and professional,” he added.
As is known, the relationship between the two is indeed rumored several times to be not harmonious, even increasingly heated after Zidane did not put Bale as a starter in the Champions League final, May 2018 ago. The 27-year-old then proved his quality by scoring two goals and delivering his team to realize the target of La Decimotercera.
Now the fate of Bale under the direction of Santiago Solari can also be said to be not very good, he had pulled over for quite a long time due to injury and only scored a total of eight goals in all competitions.
